This continues from the last puzzle, so our starting string is "hepxxyzz"
Following the theme of the previous puzzle, we want to create an "xxyzz" pattern in the lowest
amount of increments possible. Since the string currently ends in "xxyzz", we know that the next
possible value we could have that satisfies this property is "aabcc". In order to go from "xxyzz" to
"aabcc" however, you need to overflow which would increment the "p" to a "q". This gives an end
result of "heqaabcc".
QED.
